Danish Research Confirms Rath Discovery: Enzyme Block Stops Cancer Spread
Research done at Copenhagen University and published in the International Journal of Cancer confirms a discovery made by Dr. Mathias Rath, the controversial founder of a new direction in health care called Cellular Medicine. The Danish study found that the enzyme urokinase plasminogen activator plays a critical role in the spread of cancer. Absence of the enzyme prevents the forming of metastases.
While the Danish researchers are now looking for a medication capable of eliminating the enzyme, Dr. Rath and his researchers have already found that our bodies have a natural mechanism that blocks the enzyme, which can be reinforced by abundantly supplying certain nutrients: vitamin C and the aminoacids lysine and proline.
Notorious “quackbuster” Stephen Barrett put his foot in his mouth when he cited a comment from the Swiss Study Group for Complementary and Alternative Methods in Cancer (SKAK) and the Swiss Cancer League (SCL) that Rath’s discovery was not somehing to be reckoned with, as it had “never been scientifically tested”. A very lazy way of making nothing of someone else’s discovery, to be sure, but one that is widely used by the current pharma/medical establishment when it comes to “warning” of natural cures that could significantly cut into pharma profits by using non-patentable substances such as simple nutrients to fight disease.
